"Sensei aren't I supposed to be training?" Aria asks irritated

"Yes" he replies

"Then.." Aria stops wiping the windows "why the hell am I doing chores!"

"Because this monastery hasn't been cleaned in hundreds of years" he chuckles

"By the way Sensei" She looks at him "what's your name anyway?"

"I have many names" he strokes his beard before smiling "but you may call me Sensei Roshi"

"Hm" Aria nods "alright"

"Now, continue" Roshi sits on a chair

"You've gotta be kidding me" Aria says annoyed

"Nope" he sips tea "continue"

Aria growls in annoyance and continues wiping the windows. After she finished wiping all the windows inside and outside of the monastery, she began to wash the floor... with just a cloth!

"You've got to be kidding me!" Aria shouts "how am I supposed to clean with just this?!"

"You dip it in the bucket and wash" Roshi replies "I thought it was pretty obvious"

"Ughhh" Aria goes and places the bucket down

"No no no" Roshi walks over and takes the bucket from her "you must keep the bucket off the floor, or it'll make marks. And you must only us your feet, it'll make it much quicker"

"You old geezer" Aria says annoyed "why does it matter?!"

"Everything matters" Roshi hands her the bucket and walks away

"Fine" Aria huffs and starts to clean the floor the way he said

After awhile she finally finishes, it was night time and she was hungry.

"Good" Roshi praises "now that you've finished, please get started on dinner"

"W-what?!" Aria shouts "I dont know how to cook"

"Oh well, guess no dinner for you then" Roshi shrugs and walks away

"Ughhhhh!" Aria shouts in frustration

Master Roshi sat in his office, he could hear much racket coming from the kitchen. He guessed that would be his young pupil attempting to cook. No matter how many shouts and noise he heard he refused to leave his room.

His wolf familiar, Maximus, sat next to him. Max kept glancing from Roshi to the door. He seemed concerned for the poor kitchen.

After a bit it was quiet and Roshi finally stood up. He and Max made their way through the Monastery and to the Kichen. When he opened the door he found Aria sitting on the floor fast asleep.

Roshi looked around the kitchen to see it a mess, their was a lot of failed attempts laying around. However their was one pot of fried rice that was not messed up, she had already eaten some before she passed out.

Roshi chuckles and pats Aria's head "you still have much to learn my young pupil"
